The U.S. is disgusting. I can't stand this shit. I already knew that this kind of stuff goes on in the world, but... Eugh. If you put your child in a pageant, you do not deserve to own that child.
And with Japan, they have creepy disgusting porn, but it stays as a fantasy and is rarely put into practice. Not that Japan does everything right, because it doesn't.

It's not only the U.S., although the U.S. is mostly to blame for being where this stuff originates.
It's a lot like the bubonic plague: it starts somewhere, but spreads everywhere via innocent means. Takes out society en-masse, before dying down again.
Once you notice that society is basically insane, it becomes something you can never be unaware of, again.
The only defense one has, is to vigilantly ensure one does not become society, in microcosm.
